Flower Poems

In Love with the Wind
      
The wind blows on
to every horizon
passing through the earth
where it could be heard

Here comes a flower
in its flourishing
the spirit of the wind
soaking in every inch of its living

Shaking and trembling
the flower nearly stops breathing
Screaming and shouting
the flower rebels from its rooting

Struggling against its origin
the flower dreams to fly away
to be free,
gone with the wind

But the wind is gone,
leaving the flower alone,
scattered like a fragile bone
until its days are gone

Cup of Water, by Silas Vriend
PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 06 May 2009

Hey, it's week 18, and we've got something a little different-- Silas Vreind's cup, which is made from a 16-sided polygon! For the record, that's called a hexadecagon.

I folded it from 6 inch kami for the photo, but I recommend using something a little bigger for your first try. Letter paper or A4 should be fine.

Diagrams are Here

Oh, and we've got a short survey we'd like you to take. Click Here to take survey. Thank you!

Gaudi Cube, by Andrew Hudson

Week 17. Three weeks left before my school gets out for the year-- so I'm busy performing and studying for finals, instead of diagramming like I should be. I need to get my priorities straight! :-P

This week I've made a variation on an earlier design of mine, and diagrammed them both-- I hope you enjoy folding them!

The original model can be folded easily out of 6" kami or printer paper, but I recommend at least 15 inch kami or foil for the variation. There are a lot of layers, and it gets kind of small. (I did it with 10", but then I've been doing a lot of small folding recently)

Diagrams here. Have fun folding!

Cassowary - Sebastian Arellano

Tuesday, 21 April 2009

This week we have Sebastian Arellano's Cassowary.

When I first received these diagrams, I have to admit I was slightly disappointed reading through the folding sequence on page 2... until I saw where it was going! There is a very cool trick used to give the body its volume and shape.  In fact, page 3 is just filled with great stuff!  And how often do you see an origami Cassowary!

Cassowary - Sebastian Arellano

The version in the photo above was folded by Sebastian himself. I folded one too, but I don't have any black paper ready, and white/yellow origami paper just could not do this giant wingless bird justice.

Enjoy!

And as always, we'd love to see your photos! Also, remember to return for next week's installment of Origami Weekly!
